Overview

Microsoft Dynamics 365 Sales Professional is the entry-level sales application in the Dynamics 365 Sales lineup. It supports account, contact, lead, opportunity, activity, product, quote, order and invoice management.

The application runs on Microsoft Dataverse and uses the Power Apps model-driven app framework. Microsoft describes Sales Professional as a sales automation option with a smaller entity set than Sales Enterprise. ([learn.microsoft.com](https://learn.microsoft.com/en-us/dynamics365/sales/overview?utm_source=openai))

Key Features

Sales Professional supports lead and opportunity management, sales activities, customer records, products, price lists, quotes, orders and invoices. Users can also create dashboards, charts and reports for operational sales tracking.

Administrators can customize tables, forms, views, dashboards, charts and business processes through the app designer. Microsoft documents integrations with Microsoft Teams, LinkedIn Sales Navigator solutions, ZoomInfo and sample telephony scenarios. ([download.microsoft.com](https://download.microsoft.com/documents/en-us/dynamics365/pricing/Dynamics%20365%20Licensing%20Guide.pdf?utm_source=openai))

The service supports mobile access through Power Apps and Dynamics 365 mobile applications. Supported desktop access uses modern browsers including Microsoft Edge, Google Chrome, Mozilla Firefox and Safari. ([learn.microsoft.com](https://learn.microsoft.com/en-us/power-apps/limits-and-config?utm_source=openai))

Pricing

Microsoft lists Dynamics 365 Sales Professional at $65 per user monthly when paid yearly. Pricing, taxes, regional availability and licensing terms can vary, so buyers should confirm current commercial terms on Microsoft’s pricing page.

Microsoft also offers a 30-day Dynamics 365 Sales trial. The trial requires a Microsoft work account and may request organization details and payment information during registration.

Pros:

  • Strong integration with Microsoft 365, Teams and the broader Power Platform.
  • Dataverse provides a documented data model and REST-based Web API.
  • Includes core sales automation, pipeline management and transaction records.
